Here's the clips of Tim in his second episode of High Incident. His first ep isn't anywhere but based on the episode guide, I think he was a 21 Jump Street-type narc at a high school. The other parts cut out are other cops having unmemorable interactions with citizens.

He was probably going to have a pretty prominent role in this, but High Incident was canceled after this season. I only watched the two episodes available with him in it but it seemed like an NYPD Blue ripoff set in LA with predictable writing and not very interesting characters. It had a huge cast and since it was ABC and DreamWorks, it must have had an insane budget.
Here's EW's review from 1996:
I can't stomach David Keith, who plays Tim's character's partner, since he always plays buttheads. On the other hand, I thought Tim was fantastic, especially when you look at how inexperienced he was. This was only his fourth credit if you count the never-aired pilot. And he was damn handsome if I may say so. I really wonder if Ellen Foster was shot in like early 1996 or something because I would swear it was his first role. So green and seemed to look even younger than he does here.
Seriously, ridiculously cute. And he's a complete Boy Scout here so his mom must have insisted all the ladies at church watch.

Here's EW's review from 1996:
A well-meaning example of Bochco lite, High Incident is a police drama with an ensemble cast and scripts that strain for quirkiness. Set in a fictional California suburb, Incident stars David Keith as Sgt. Jim Marsh, a loudmouthed, thrice-divorced lout whom we’re supposed to believe has a heart of gold. Humph. Keith oversees a squad of cops crawling with eccentricities: One thinks he may be psychic, another likes to discuss his bladder control, a third (killed off in the pilot) is obsessed with power mowers.
There’s a lot of abrupt action, with ordinary citizens exploding into rage; the stylized dialogue is festooned with colorful turns of phrase and discursive anecdotes. (Actor/performance artist Eric Bogosian is listed as cocreator, and much of Incident is flavored with his brand of self-conscious melodrama.) The result is a cross between Hill Street Blues and NYPD Blue without the distinctive characters. If you’re keeping a media scorecard: High Incident is the second production from DreamWorks SKG; it’s a lot better than the soggy sitcom Champs, but it’s also nothing original.
